Do you like where the NFL is heading?

It isn't just NIL. Unlimited transfers, eligibility non-requirements, and coference realingment are all gas on the dumpster fire.

Ain't that a fact. The lesser division one schools can't generate enough NIL money from donors to attract players entering the transfer portal. The schools can't directly pay the players, so the money goes into a fund where it then gets dolled out. Some state laws are real murky on how involved schools themselves can get with handing out the money or advertising deals. NIL is the ruin of NCAA sports, the bigger schools will get the best players.

It’s rapidly becoming just a form of semi- pro with the colleges lending their “ brand “ names. When was the last time one can recall a player at a major power 5 university sitting out because of academic insufficiency? The term “ student athlete “ is so ridiculous that it should be done away with IMO. I’m personally not nearly so invested as I once was.
